Integrin α6/ITGA6/CD49f Antibody (4F10): sc-53356

Integrin α6 Antibody (4F10) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2b kappa light chain antibody raised against the SW1222 human colorectal cell line, designed to detect Integrin α6 from mouse, rat, and human origins by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and flow cytometry (FCM). Integrin α6, also known as ITGA6 or CD49f, is a transmembrane glycoprotein that pairs with β subunits, particularly β1 and β4, to form heterodimers essential for cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix through laminin binding. Integrin α6 undergoes crucial post-translational modifications such as glycosylation and phosphorylation, which are vital for proper folding, stability, and functional activity in signal transduction pathways. Glycosylation affects the ligand-binding capacity and cell-surface expression of Integrin α6, while phosphorylation of its cytoplasmic domain modulates interactions with intracellular signaling molecules and proteins involved in linking Integrin α6 to the actin cytoskeleton, influencing processes like cell migration, proliferation, and survival. Dysregulation or aberrant modification of Integrin α6 has been associated with various pathological conditions, including cancer progression and metastasis, underscoring the importance of studying these modifications. Anti-Integrin α6 antibody (4F10) is available in non-conjugated form and serves as a valuable tool for researchers investigating the role of Integrin α6 in cellular adhesion, signaling pathways, and disease mechanisms. By providing accurate detection across multiple species, Integrin α6 monoclonal antibody (4F10) aids in advancing our understanding of Integrin α6 function and its impact on health and disease.
